SACHA Baron Cohen’s new film The Dictator has gone straight to No 1 at the UK box office.

The outrageous film, which stars Sacha, 40, as General Admiral Aladeen, has taken a massive £5million in its opening weekend.

It is bigger than previous hit comedies, including The Hangover and Bridesmaids, and matches Cohen’s previous movie Bru?no.

The Dictator, which sees Sacha’s character bed Hollywood babe Megan Fox, 26, knocked previous No 1 Avengers Assemble off the top spot.

In the film, General Admiral Aladeen goes to New York to address the United Nations but is abducted, replaced by a double and lands on the streets minus his trademark beard.
